    Travelling

  • Description

    Hello,
    My name is Bella, 32 years old. Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. Here is a little glimpse into who I am and my story so far.
    I first started off traveling my country, working various jobs, volunteering, WAing, HelpXing, etc, for about 3 years. I even spent 5 months living in Hawaii. Traveling my country sparked such inspiration and passion for life and now I have achieved my dreams of traveling abroad. I have been to Indonesia and Thailand so far, and I am so very excited to see where else my travels take me!
    I'm an avid reader & writer, passionate cook & baker, animal & music lover, researcher, conscious dancer, and life enthusiast.
    I am big on developing awareness, self-care & love, meditation, yoga, breath work, gardening, and dancing. I am very interested in learning how to build and do carpentry.
    I love to learn. I especially love to learn about spiritual practices, working with my hands, tending to animals, farming, different cooking styles, and anything art related. With that said, I also love to give back - to teach & share my unique skills and perspectives whenever possible.
    I have former volunteering experience working in intentional communities, working and running a kitchen, tending to animals, building, community living, retreat centers, and farm work.
    When possible, I teach English online while traveling for an income. I also have a newly launched podcast called All Our Pieces - a soul seeking podcast. Therefore, I need a good stable internet connection. It is unfortunate as I know this eliminates a lot of opportunities :(
    Thank you for taking the time to read this introduction. I look forward to hearing from you!
    Bella

  • More details about your skills

    I am an excellent cook and baker and have been interested in and experimenting with different forms of cooking my whole life. While I do not have an professional training, I was fortunate enough to grow up in a family of cooks, all who owned various types of restaurants and I gained a lot of expertise from hands-on experience!
    I am a very strong woman, and can work very well with physical labor. I have done a lot of farm work, animal care, painting, some construction, and would love to learn more about working with wood, building, crafting, etc.
    I am a very tech-savvy person. I am quick to learn with computers. I have done very limited website design and online promotion/advertising so far but I am very excited to learn and/or teach myself more of this process. I am very confident that I could help out in this area, with a little patience as I am not a pro yet very capable :)
    I have a lot of experience and expertise working in customer service. I worked in restaurants for 10 years while completing my schooling and before traveling.
    I am a passionate dancer. I love to create safe spaces where people can feel into themselves and experience deep learning, meditation, and healing through conscious movement and awareness.
    In my opinion, my best skill is my ability and enthusiasm to learn fast. If I am passionate about something, I give it my all and am quick to adapt and achieve results. **
